In the long river of going back to the ancient political system, the names of the two positions of prime minister and prime minister are only one word apart, but the authority and status they symbolize are very different. What is the depth of this subtle difference? Let's take a look at why there is such a huge difference between prime ministers and prime ministers in history!
First, let's talk about the supreme prime minister and the relatively broad prime minister. Both prime ministers and prime ministers are important groups that are the core of the ruling class. But their behavior in the court is not what you might think, living a leisurely life or a respectful atmosphere among the ministers, in fact, they are planning how to change the trajectory of the heavens, the earth and the stars, and how to plan the whole situation from the top of power. Prime Minister, this position originated from the Qin Dynasty, has experienced more than 2,000 years of baptism, its status is second only to the emperor, in charge of the executive, legislative, judicial power, and even enjoys the absolute power of "words must be done, deeds must be fruitful". However, what is embarrassing is that the world of power is always changing rapidly, and these prime ministers are often trapped in it, and they can only rely on themselves to overcome obstacles and ride the wind and waves. In contrast, the scope of the prime minister is more extensive, it includes not only the prime minister, but also the prime minister and others. Shouldering the important mission of determining the rise and fall of the world, they must transcend the immediate conflict of interests and seek various balancing points to converge into a single voice that will lead the way of the entire empire. This difference is like a light at the end of purgatory, illuminating the evolution of ancient Chinese politics and opening a magnificent chapter.
Next, we examine the ecology of power and the power of faith in the system of prime ministers and prime ministers. The position of prime minister, although it seems to be glorious, is actually the power of the emperor, which is extremely fragile. When kings lose favor with prime ministers, their positions of power will also evaporate. For example, Zhuge Liang in the long history, he was once extremely trusted and respected by Liu Bei, but with Liu Bei's death, he faced the ruthless suspicion and exclusion of his successor Liu Chan. And the reason why the prime minister system has been able to stand for a long time is precisely because it relies on collective wisdom and strength. The impact of personal ups and downs on the organization as a whole is not significant. Take the Anshi Rebellion as an example, although the princes of the Tang Xuanzong Prime Minister Group were struggling, they always firmly believed that unity was strength, silently condensed various forces in the group, supported people with lofty ideals, and finally reborn in adversity, turned the tide, and re-established the glory of the Tang Dynasty. This spirit of firm collective decision-making and checks and balances shows the charm of the prime minister's system through the ups and downs, firm and stable, and is also a mature concept that the ancient Chinese ruling group has honed with reason to overcome emotion.
Finally, let's focus on the relationship between Xuanzong and the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, a wise monarch and a group of outstanding ministers worked together to create a prosperous Tang Dynasty. After Tang Xuanzong ascended the throne, he eliminated dissidents, suppressed Zhang Yizhi and other corrupts**, consolidated the official lineup, and adopted a series of artistic means to balance the forces of all parties to ensure the stable operation of the country. In addition, he was also good at using the power of his opponents to promote Wei Anshi to be the prime minister, thus forming a situation of mutual checks and balances. This ingenious strategy made the entire imperial court like a ship, which could still move forward steadily in the midst of storms. The correct guidance of Tang Xuanzong made the prime ministers fit with their hearts and souls, and jointly composed a magnificent picture of the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty.
In general, through the above analysis and discussion, we can see that the connotation of the prime minister and the prime minister is indeed different, the prime minister relies on collective decision-making to influence the pace of history, while the prime minister is more inclined to the power of the individual. The difference of just one word has created a worlds of power distance. When the prime minister was in his heyday, he embraced supreme power and high prestige; On the contrary, he failed to cover all the powers of the prime minister and was praised by the world. This subtle gap constructs a complex and complex political landscape, which makes people ponder why there are historical reasons and what are political connotations. Such a far-reaching influence has naturally created a glorious image of many outstanding prime ministers and prime ministers. The establishment of the system of prime minister and prime minister is the true embodiment of the political division of labor, the relationship between monarchs and ministers, and the regulations of officialdom.
